Default PPE headers exoticspeed midpipe

Cant find anyone running an Exoticspeed midpipe let alone someone with the PPE headers. Would just run my stock midpipe but its rotting. Exoticspeed pipe has 2 HFCs so I thought it would be a good match for the headers. Anyone have this setup or have any thoughts on this?

I have an Is350.I Had one of the exotic speed exhausts on my msp protege, I was quite happy with it. I searched the forums about PPE headers and read all he threads. Most just say "put your stock mid pipe back in" and I don't have that option. I asked about this specific mid pipe because it has cats I it and it is on eBay pretty cheap.

I think I'm pretty set on it because it has the cats (i'm still left wondering what the quality of these cats is like), then it will quiet down Ppe headers when I get them. Now it is just a matter or deciding between Hks or fujitsubo for the exhaust. Do i get the hks and hope its not too loud or go with the fujitsubo and hope its not too quiet? Build quality of the fujitsudo looks a little better. Thoughts?

Why don't you have the option to use your stock? If it in your car already I don't see why you can't use it. I have ppe,stock mid pipe and Fujitsubo exhaust. I'm very happy with this setup. I like cause I won't get annoyed for years to come.

Yeah I'm still running cats and no drone. To the OP I wanna say the exhaust note are in between the stock and tanabe exhaust. By the way you can also opt to get a Megan mid pipe a little cheaper than the one you want.
